Opponent is 12/8. It is blindingly obvious to me that he has a set after his turn checkraise, but I feel way too committed to get away. Is there a better way to play these situations or do you just accept that you're always going to stack off here?

A set is very high on his range of hands here. but its quite possible that he is over playing a hand like qq or jj. Also if he had a set on this board don't you think he would have raised the flop. Its not a dry flop at all considering he still had 1 player behind him?

I'd have to say at 12/10 hes more than likely not stacking off on the turn with less than 2pr.

I think it was played right, untill the call for the 32, i think i would have folded, even he didnt have a set then, the chance that he picked up his flush draq like having a hand a/10 diamonds, hit top pair and then hit flush draw, or a/2 and caught straight, there are to many hands he could have for 32,

I'd bet more on the flop, probably a psb or so. I'm not sure about the turn though, he would bet a set somewhere along the line rather than check/shove wouldn't he?
<JustinSKS> Tha'ts why I fold my 33 to 72o, because 7 high beats, 1 pair, donk.

 You are not committed...this is a really standard laydown. His preflop calling range is just about only pocket pairs fwiw.
